Travis Barker endured playing drums with Blink-182 in Manchester recently with bloody knuckles and fingers.
The drummer posted a photo on his Instagram Stories, which has since disappeared, following a UK show on Blink’s reunion tour. Blink-182 performed in Manchester on Sunday (October 15) and Monday (October 16).
In the image seen by Billboard are close-up cuts and scabs across his fingers and knuckles. Barker also shared a photo of his blood-stained trousers from the incident.
It follows the musician sharing earlier this month that he recently had an episode of severe nerve pain (trigeminal neuralgia) as well as a COVID infection and root canal treatment.
He’s been plagued by health issues in the last few weeks and joked to fans that it means he ācan pretty much handle anything god throws at meā.
Barker has suffered other health issues in recent months. In February he told his followers that he had dislocated and torn the ligaments of one of his fingersĀ while rehearsing forĀ Blinkās reunion tour with Tom DeLonge.
He thenĀ injured a finger again before having successful surgery ahead of touring.
The drummer returned to Blink’s tour this monthĀ after hisĀ wifeĀ Kourtney Kardashian underwent ālife-threatening emergency surgeryā for their unborn baby. The incident meant that Barker was forced to fly home from the bandās UK and Ireland tour, cancelling gigs in Dublin, Belfast and Glasgow.
Meanwhile, Blink have shared ‘Fell In Love‘, another new single from their upcoming album āOne More Timeā¦ā
